Synopsis

When Ash hears of the nearby Charicific Valley, he is sure a quick trip would be just the thing to reignite his Charizard’s flagging spirits. When they reach the valley, though, they find its dragon denizens anything but cordial. Judged weak, and denied entrance to the valley, Charizard is left more dejected than ever...

Trivia

Errors

Dub edits

• There is a close-up shot of Ash's Charizard being hit very hard by a wild Charizard and sent flying into the top part of the entrance to the Valley with its tail that was cut from the English dub and replaced with an impact animation.
